# Making software better without sacrificing user experience.

As a designer/developer hybrid, I help software companies improve their user experience and ship more performant products. I also actively maintain several [open source projects](https://git.sr.ht/~bt).

I'm passionate about open source software, usability, performance, privacy, and minimal design. This small piece of the internet stores a growing collection of my personal [brain dumps](/dump).

## Skills & Languages

Core tools are Figma, HTML, CSS, JavaScript & WordPress. Currently improving my skills with Ruby, Rails, MySQL & PHP. I also enjoy tinkering with basic shell scripts and [Unix systems](/public/images/unix.gif).
